Affordable Tree Care

Operating a professional, wee-equipped tree service business is expensive. Labor costs, equipment, and insurance are all major overhead expenses. All of our stump grinders are over $15,000 each while some of our trucks (bucket and dump) are over $30,000 each. Additionally, to protect our crew members, we carry worker's compensation, which adds on average 20% to our labor costs. So, this means for each $100 in labor cost that we incur, we incur an additional $20 - it all adds up. Now we are not complaining but it is a fact that to provide quality tree care services a company has to incur significant expenses. To the contrary, however, we know our customer want affordable tree care.

At Cedar Rapids Tree Service we are able to keep our prices down through the quality volume of business that we perform. While we may not be the cheapest tree contractor in the area, we do offer the best value when you take into consideration our quality. This best value pricing is our response to customers wanting affordable but professional tree services. The old adage of "you can't have your cake and eat it too" is true in most things as well as the tree business. But we strive to come close in offering the best value in providing the quality tree care you expect and deserve.

Serving Greater Cedar Rapids (Linn, Benton, and Jones Counties)

We service the entire Greater Cedar Rapids area, which includes Linn, Benton, and Jones counties. This naturally also covers Marion and Hiawatha. Within these areas are hundreds of thousands of trees native to east-central Iowa. And we take care of all species indigenous to our home area. This includes Oaks, of which the Bur Oak is our state tree), Ashes, Birches, Elms, and Pines to name only a few. Each species requires unique arboricultural care that we are extremely qualified to perform. So no matter where you live in the Cedar Rapids area and no matter what type(s) of trees you have, Cedar Rapids Tree Service can service you and your trees.​

Completely Licensed & Insured

Tree work is one of the most dangerous jobs in the country, both from our crew members as well as potentially to your property. For this reason, it is paramount to only ever use a tree business that is fully insured, both worker's compensation and an umbrella liability policy with a minimum of $1M in coverage. Some tree companies neither provide this protection to their employees nor their customers. As a result, these businesses put their employees at risk from a safety perspective, and they expose their customers to financial and legal risk. If an accident should happen on your property, and the contractor is not adequately insured, you will be liable under your homeowner's policy. Clearly, this is not a risk property owners want to assume, especially unknowingly. It is for these reasons, that we offer complete and extensive insurance protection for every one of our employees and customers.

You can trust Cedar Rapids Tree to provide you, the property owner, with complete insurance coverage for all work performed at your home or business. ​

Save yourself the money, time and potential safety risk by calling the professionals at Cedar Rapids Tree. We can be at your home or business ASAP to provide tree damage clean-up; and, we operate 24x7 during large-scale storm aftermaths due to the volume of customers requiring relief.
